Abstract

Die Beschaltungsklemme für eine lötfreie Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung von vorzugsweise elektrisch isolierten Leitungsadern umfasst mindestens einen, mindestens einen Draht aufnehmenden, sich nach unten verjüngenden Schneidklemmschlitz sowie eine, hinter dem Schneidklemmschlitz der Beschaltungsklemme angeordneten Schneidkante. Hierbei ist die Ausbildung so, dass die Schneidkante (3) vom Schneidklemmschlitz (2) mit vorgegebenem Abstand distanziert und sich schlitzförmig nach unten verjüngend und schliessend ausgebildet ist sowie an einem, am Kontaktarm (6) der Beschaltungsklemme mit dem Schneidklemmschlitz (2) parallel und nach hinten über Stegmittel (9) distanziert ein Schneidarm (7) angeformt ist, wobei das Ganze eine U-förmige Ausgestaltung aufweist. Dies gestattet, einen aufzuschaltenden Drahtmit geringster Kraft mit einem Beschaltungswerkzeug oder, bei Mehrfach-Kontaktehaltern mit niederdrückbarem Schwenkdeckel oder niederdrückbarer Drucktaste, mit einem Schwenkdeckel oder einer Drucktaste gleichzeitig in den Schneidklemmschlitz und in die Schneidkante einzudrücken, um den Draht im Schneidklemmschlitz zu fixieren und an der Schneidkante abzutrennen. Hierbei ist sichergestellt, dass eine torsionsartige Verdrehung der Kontaktarme nicht auftreten kann.

Figure 00000001
The wiring clamp for a solder-free insulation displacement connection of preferably electrically insulated line wires comprises at least one insulation displacement slot that tapers downwards and tapers downward, as well as a cutting edge arranged behind the insulation displacement slot of the wiring terminal. The design is such that the cutting edge (3) is spaced from the insulation displacement slot (2) at a predetermined distance and is designed to taper and close in the shape of a slot, and is parallel to and on the contact arm (6) of the wiring terminal with the insulation displacement slot (2) a cutting arm (7) is formed at a distance from the web means (9), the whole being U-shaped. This allows a wire to be switched on with the least force using a wiring tool or, in the case of multiple contact holders with a depressible swivel cover or push button, with a swivel cover or a push button simultaneously in the insulation displacement slot and in the cutting edge in order to fix the wire in the insulation displacement slot and on the Cut off the cutting edge. This ensures that the contact arms cannot twist.
